  • Google has introduced Wi-Fi Sync on Chrome OS to save your passwords across Chromebooks.
  • There’s also a simpler settings search to find the option you’re looking for.
  • It’s also easier to control video recording and lower your mic output.

Google just made life easier if you hate typing Wi-Fi passwords on your Chromebook. The internet giant is rolling out a Chrome OS update that will streamline a few common tasks, including signing in to your local wireless network.

A new Wi-Fi Sync feature will save passwords to your Google account, saving you from having to reenter a login for the same network on another Chromebook. This will be most helpful if you live in a home with multiple Chromebooks, but it could also be handy if you’re upgrading to a new laptop and don’t want to hunt down your credentials just to get online.
